A doctor was shot dead and his nephew injured

A doctor was shot dead and his nephew injured and a woman was also killed in separate incidents Wednesday in Sohrab Goth and Bahadurabad respectively.

Forty-five-year-old Halima of Sherpao Colony was taken to the LNH after she was shot by her 19-year-old son Adnan, a driver by profession, over her character. She had ten children and worked as a maid. Adnan fled but was arrested with the TT pistol after a few hours by head constable Shakir from the Awami Markaz bus stop. FIR No. 14/08 has been registered by her son Irfan, said DSP Nawaz Ranjha.

Khabeer ran clinic ‘Akhwandzada’ in Hassan Nauman Colony, Jannat Gul Town. “I think it is a domestic dispute,” said SHO Javaid Afridi. The accused first went into the clinic and spoke to the doctor. He asked him to come out and then shot him. Khabeer was a resident of Al-Asif Square.

An FIR has been registered by his brother Abdul Majeed.
